Line 8:
Within various forms of media there is a prevalent assumption among creators that large breasts automatically make a woman more attractive. This often leads to significant focus on said breasts, or the character with the largest breasts getting treated as the [[Hello, Nurse!|most attractive]] in-universe—regardless of who the fans think is really the most attractive.
 
This'''Buxom tropeIs Better''' is not simply "Big Breasts = Hot Girl," the female character needs to be seen as more attractive in-universe ''because of'' her larger breasts. Her breasts should at least be referenced in dialogue if not an integral part of the character. Male characters often gawk at her breasts and may be easily influenced if said female character flaunts her breasts, leading to [[I Have Boobs - You Must Obey!]] Female characters, especially flat chested ones are often prone to jealously and yearning for larger breasts.
 
In [[Real Life]], some do consider an overly-large bosom attractive, but a woman who ''is'' a D-cup might see such a yearning as misplaced, as it can be both unwieldy and painful.
 
The logical opposite to [[A-Cup Angst]], and [[Petite Pride]], and the [[Distaff Counterpart]] to [[Bigger Is Better in Bed]]. For when busty equates ''dangerous'', see [[Boobs of Steel]]. While [[Bigger Is Better in Bed]] applies [[Bigger Is Better]] to penis size and quality of sex, respectively, this trope applies it to breast size and attractiveness.

== Advertising ==
* Despite being flat as a board, posters for ''[[King Arthur]]'' were doctored to make [[Keira Knightley]] look like a [[Big Bra to Fill|C-cup]].
* [[Emma Watson]] was also on the receiving end of some Photoshop enhancement on certain ''[[Harry Potter (film)|Harry Potter]]'' posters once she was old enough.
 
== Anime and Manga ==
Line 38:
{{quote|''Sheryl Nome: "My chest isn't the same as yours: Mine brings people hopes and dreams."'' }}
* Yo-Han from ''[[Need a Girl!]]'' makes extensive speeches about how Bigger = Hotter. He is very much a breast man.
* ''[[Slayers]]'' sometimes get weird in this regard. Lina, with quite a good figure, is called "flat" and is [[A-Cup Angst|awfully concerned]] about this. Of course, it's more understandable when compared to her usual companions—that's either Amelia or [[Gag Boobs|Naga]]...
* The homunculus Lust in ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]'' has pretty impressive breasts, though it only gets brought up once.
{{quote|'''Mustang:''' I can see how she tricked you. You've always been a sucker for big boobs.
'''Havoc:''' I'm sorry sir. ''(cue [[Cherubic Choir]])'' I just love them so much! }}
* [[Played With]] in ''[[Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?]]'': While other large-breasted women have no trouble attracting men, Kami Hestia — whose in-universe nickname is "loli big-boobs" — can't get a date to save her life.
* Downplayed in ''[[How Not to Summon a Demon Lord]]''. The fantasy realm is certainly a [[World of Buxom]] where every female inhabitant is a [[Ms. Fanservice]], and Shera (one of the two females of the [[Trio]]) is indeed the busty type. However, Rem (the other member) is more [[Petite Pride]], and manages to be just as Fanservice-y as Shera.
 
== Comic Books ==
Line 115 ⟶ 117:
* ''[[Shantae]]'' actually averts this. Despite being a [[Ms. Fanservice]] living in a [[World of Buxom]] where even the Mooks are busty, the heroine herself is usually depicted with a modest bosom. Her nemesis Risky Boots, [[Evil Is Sexy| on the other hand...]]
 
=== Visual Novels ===
* Mia Fey from ''[[Ace Attorney]]'' was once able use her large breasts to get information out of a [[Dirty Old Man]] witness. Also, in the first game she gets a small boy to start talking with a Cheshire Grin smile when Phoenix had a hard time getting him to cooperate at all.
 
Line 138 ⟶ 140:
** If your body type doesn't match your bust size, it can look awkward.
** Which is why [[Big Bra to Fill]] exists. Hollywood is fixated on abnormally slender women, and a poorly executed version of this trope can very quickly turn into [[Gag Boobs]].
* Buxom really is Better for one thing some couples love to do: intermammary intercourse, also known as a tittyjob or ''paizuri'' (if you're a consumer of [[Hentai]]). The bigger the breasts, the more fat to wrap around the partner's member, and that means stronger penetration stimulation.
